Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA: Windows 7 multiple monitor switch/cycle buttons

Yes I had a feeling this would be suggested (windows key + P does the same thing) - however it doesn't let you choose which of your 3 monitors you can use, it is more of a function for 2 screens/projectors.

thanks for the input anyway. Looks like this is going to be a quiet thread!

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Windows 7 multiple monitor switch/cycle buttons
« Last post by kevyn on December 18, 2009, 04:07 AM »
Hi guys,

here is my problem:

In vista, I used to have an autohotkey script that opened up the nvidia control panel, and selected one of 3 profiles I had saved on my system:

  • 1 - single screen only (monitor 1 only - for gaming)
  • 2 - dual monitors (monitor 1+2 - for everyday use)
  • 3 - TV out (monitor 1+3)

I created 3 little buttons that sat in my quick launch bar representing each setup.

Now I was wondering if there is anyway of doing this for Windows 7 without using autohotkey/nvidia control panel? I've searched and searched, but can't find anyway to trigger the screen resolution --> select which 2 monitors to use --> confirm selection process.

The end result would be to have a small taskbar app that I could right click on and select one of my setups, or alternativly, just 3 little scripts that I could put on the taskbar to use

 I'm not a programer, and this is my first post, so please go easy on me!

Here is my old AHK scripts as well as the icons I used (just in case they come in useful)
